Hey Gary. I just listened to your Flying Pig run. My running buddy (Jeff) and I have a running podcast called Running with the Pack (at parkedthoughts.com). In any case, we ran the Flying Pig this year as well.
As I listened to your race (before looking through your site), I couldn't tell how fast you were going and assumed that you were going pretty slowly because you were walking, but finishing in 3:20 is impressive! Jeff and I aren't quite that fast and we were surprised by how hilly the course was. We recorded a race report shortly after getting back to the hotel (episode #8).
In any case, I noticed that Pennsylvania is not checked off on your 50-states map. We're planning to run Philadelphia in November 2008 and possibly Pittsburgh in May 2009. We did Philly last year and it's a nice flat and fast course in very cool temperatures (40's). Let us know if you decide to do either.
